Find Answers for Unexplained Swelling and Developmental Concerns
When your child experiences persistent swelling, recurrent infections, or developmental delays, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our CCBE1 Gene Test provides the clarity you need to understand Hennekam lymphangiectasia-lymphedema syndrome type 1 – a rare genetic condition affecting the lymphatic system. We’re here to guide you through this journey with compassion and medical expertise.
Understanding Your CCBE1 Genetic Test
This advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) test examines the CCBE1 gene, which plays a crucial role in lymphatic system development. When this gene contains mutations, it can lead to Hennekam syndrome – a condition characterised by abnormal lymphatic vessels, swelling (lymphedema), and potential developmental concerns. Our test provides definitive answers about whether you or your child carries these genetic changes.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained swelling in limbs or face (lymphedema)
- Recurrent infections due to immune system concerns
- Developmental delays or intellectual disability
- Facial features associated with Hennekam syndrome
- Family history of similar symptoms
- Intestinal problems related to lymphatic abnormalities
Early diagnosis can significantly improve management strategies and quality of life.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Receiving a definitive diagnosis brings multiple benefits:
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Tailored management strategies for lymphatic concerns
- Family Planning Guidance: Understanding inheritance patterns for future generations
- Reduced Medical Uncertainty: Ending the diagnostic odyssey and providing clear direction
- Improved Quality of Life: Early intervention for better long-term outcomes
- Peace of Mind: Knowing the exact cause of symptoms reduces anxiety
